Abstract:
Sarcopenia and frailty are common geriatric syndromes and are associated with adverse health outcome and impaired health-related quality of life. Co-occurrences of these two syndromes with age-related neurological diseases are potentially high but not well investigated. Moreover, it is not well understood how these syndromes interact with neurological diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and stroke. This article introduces the currently most accepted concepts of sarcopenia and frailty, discusses the potential relevance of the syndromes for geriatric patients and p

Abstract:
Hereditary cancer syndromes, which are characterized by onset at an early age and an increased risk of developing certain tumors, are caused by germline pathogenic variants in tumor suppressor genes and are mostly inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Therefore, hereditary cancer syndromes have been used as powerful models to identify and characterize susceptibility genes associated with cancer. Furthermore, clarification of the association between genotypes and phenotypes in one disease has provided insights into the etiology of other seemingly different diseases. Molecular genetic disco

Aging is an intrinsic process that is independent of obvious disease. In contrast to normal aging, age-related diseases are conditions that typically manifest at advanced ages, are associated with explicit pathology and cause disability and premature death. We used Drosophila as a model to investigate the molecular-genetic mechanisms associated with aging and age-related disease. Age-related locomotor impairment (ARLI) is a serious condition for the elderly and greatly impacts their quality of life.

In addition, recent advancements in neuroimaging and genetic testing have become important diagnostic tools revealing underlying defects for some of these syndromes.

The term functional has almost replaced psychogenic in the neuromuscular literature for two reasons.

The association of NCP with symptoms and signs is often speculative. NCP may be seen at any age but most patients with symptoms attributed to it are teenagers or young adults.

Craniosynostosis is a condition in which one or more of the fibrous sutures in an infant skull fuses prematurely. This may lead to restricted skull and brain growth and elevated intracranial pressure. Many children with craniosynostosis undergo corrective cranioplasty in infancy, an age when the skull is relatively large in proportion to the rest of the body. Depending on the operation, it is common for blood loss to be substantial and exceed the child's estimated blood volume (EBV). Managing this blood loss is challenging and requires careful planning for fluid and blood product administratio

Craniosynostosis is a congenital condition marked by the early fusion of one or more cranial sutures. Cranial sutures are fibrous tissues that connect the skull bones. They play a crucial role in ensuring bone formation at the edges of the calvarial bones, which move apart to facilitate the passage of the head through the birth canal and allow for future brain growth. The premature fusion limits skull growth perpendicular to the affected sutures, potentially resulting in abnormal head shapes, increased intracranial pressure, and developmental delays.

Abstract:
Introduction: Migraine is the most common chronic headache in childhood, however, it is still little diagnosed in the pediatric group. Early crises can be very early, at 6 months of age. It may present in different ways according to the age group of the child and may or may not resemble the clinical picture of the associated manifestations that may aid in diagnosis. Methods and Objectives: The study used data available on the DataSus, in the category of hospitalization by the CID-10, in the group of less than 1 year, between 1 and 4 years, 5 and 9 years and 10 and 14 years, in the period from

Abstract:
Context: In the literature, there are few cases of Guillain Barré syndrome (GBS) in association with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). There is description of 19 neuropsychiatric syndromes associated with SLE, 12 of the central nervous system (CNS) and 7 of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). 10% of the patients with SLE and neurological manifestations have PNS complications. SLE is considered to have a late onset when it starts above 50 years of age and it consists in, on average, 26% of the total of individuals with SLE, however, in contrast to juvenile lupus, the number of studies is sca

Abstract:
Autoimmune diseases are prevalent disorders that many individuals within the United States suffer from. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a common autoimmune disease that has a high incidence in women of child-bearing age. Management for lupus depends on the anatomical location SLE manifests, the severity of disease, and the tolerance that one has for certain adverse effects. Glucocorticoids are commonly used to manage lupus. Currently, long term glucocorticoid usage is associated with devastating adverse effects, so current treatment options aim to mitigate corticosteroids use to improve

Abstract:
Background: Spontaneous dissection of the carotid artery is a significant cause of stroke in young people, and may be the etiology of up to 25% of ischemic strokes in this age group. Understanding the causes and clinical parameters about the disease is essential, since the perception of signs and symptoms that anticipate a cerebrovascular accident is an important prognostic factor. Objectives: Expand knowledge about the clinical and etiological mechanisms of spontaneous carotid dissection, in addition to the possibilities of diagnostic tools, providing an early approach to the disease.

Objective: The objective of this study was to analyze the overall survival of patients with second primary synchronous and metachronous breast cancer. Methodology: A retrospective cohort study on women with second primary breast cancer, diagnosed between 2000 and 2015, was conducted. The cases were drawn from the Cancer Hospital registry and classified according to the hospital registry rules for second primary cancers. The second primary breast tumor was defined as synchronous or metachronous according to the diagnosis of the second cancer: ≤6 months of the first tumor and >6 months after

Abstract:
Less than 15 years ago the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute surveyed physicians in the United States in order to characterize the demographics of hemophilia. The average age of persons with hemophilia in the United States was found to be 11.5 years old. By 10 years later, the life expectancy was predicted to be normal, and indeed the average age of persons with hemophilia in the U.S. is now in the early twenties. Early, intensive and predictably efficacious control of hemorrhage has made this result possible, and the therapeutic product which has allowed such control is commercial clot

Abstract:
Delirium is the leading complication in hospitalized older adults associated with increased mortality, adverse inpatient outcomes, and decreased functionality (McCusker et al., 2003). Delirium is a syndrome with various presentations, it can occur over a brief period, and patients may exhibit hallucinations or violence unpredictably (Tomlinson et al., 2017). Prevalence of delirium varies greatly secondary to patient demographics and comorbidities; the elderly and individuals with multiple chronic disease processes have an increased risk for inpatient delirium (Fuchs et al., 2020).

Condition being studied: World Health Organization (WHO) defines preterm birth (PTB) as babies born alive before 37 weeks of pregnancy are completed. The new estimates show that the prevalence of PTB during 2014 ranged from 8.7% to13.4% of all live births, about 15 million preterm babies born each year. Besides, PTB is the leading cause of death worldwide for children below 5 years of age. Babies born p
